WASSON BRINGS ACTION TO ENJOIN JACKSON.

Successor to Frank Kresler Bases Action on Contract Jackson Gave Not to Re-Enter Business.

Through his attorney, George A. Williams, action has been brought by Harrison Wasson to enjoin Joe Jackson from continuing in the bus business In Rensselaer. The complaint has just been filed in the circuit court. aJckson was engaged in the business here for several years. He sold out to Frank G. Kresler on Nov. 13, 1907, and under that date gave to Mr. Kresler a contract that he would not again enter into the business in Rensselaer. The contract was drawn up by B. F.’ Ferguson. Kresler later sold the business to Harrison Wasson. Mr. Jackson returned from the west during the summer and on Sept. Ist embarked in the bus business in opposition to Mr. Wasson. The contihct, which Mr. Kresler had included in selling the business to Mr. Wasson, is the basis of the action. Not only is it asked that Jackson be enjoined from continuing in the business in this city, but damages are asked for any loss sustained by Mr. Wasson during the time Jackson has been back-in business.
